Prosperous Tang special forces

Chapter 140 Everyone is happy
Watching his son go to the palace and not return for most of the day, Long Liang had already sorted out a lot of presents. At this time, except for Feifei who couldn't get out of bed, everyone else in Longfu had already gathered in the living room.

Those gifts were sorted out by Long Liang long ago, and half of the children, big and small, were filled with jewels.In this way, Ah Fu and Ah Shou fell into deep self-blame. If they hadn't been negligent for a while, they wouldn't have let people stuff these things in.

When everyone was silent, the sound of horseshoes sounded in the backyard.Hearing the sound of horseshoes, everyone knew that Long Feiyu was back, and hurriedly looked towards the backyard. After a while, Long Feiyu's figure appeared in front of everyone. Seeing him coming back alone, Long Liang knew this It's over.

But still worried: "How is it? Have you seen Your Majesty?"

Long Feiyu shook his head and sighed, "It's a step too late, let Langzhong Liu report this matter to His Majesty."

Hearing it was late, Long Liang's eyelids twitched, and Ah Fu knelt down and said, "My lord, this matter is my fault, sir. I will go to the Ministry of Criminal Justice and surrender myself, and the master is innocent."

Seeing everyone's frowning faces, Long Feiyu suddenly smiled and said: "I forgot to tell you, I was late, but I went before His Majesty's order, just in time, so these things in front of you No matter who gave the gold, silver and jewels, they have now returned to us in a fair and honest manner, and His Majesty even rewarded him with a hundred taels of gold."

Hearing His Majesty's reward of one hundred taels, the group of people were full of doubts, Long Liang said: "Your Majesty, why do you want to reward you?"

"Are you guys that fish I bought from a merchant some time ago?"

Talking about that yulongliang, he snorted: "What's not good to buy, but I bought that useless thing. It cost me 20 taels of silver. Those things are not luxuries that we can afford at all."

Long Feiyu said with a smile: "This is a luxury. Its bone powder can cure rheumatism. Your Majesty suffered from rheumatism when he was young. I will present this prescription. Do you think it is 20 taels of silver for 100 taels of gold?" Is it a good deal?"

After a little thought, Long Liang realized, "It's a good deal, but if it doesn't work, you'll be deceiving the king."

Long Feiyu waved his hand and said, "Dad, don't worry, if my medical skills are ranked second in this world, even Sun Simiao dare not be the first."

Seeing where Long Feiyu was boasting, Ling'er interjected: "Second Uncle, let's go, let Second Brother be here alone."

Long Liang nodded and agreed, "That's right, today is a day of great joy. Ah Fu and Ah Shou have brought out a few taels of gold. One tael for each of you can be counted as a reward."

Hearing that Long Liang gave each of them a tael of gold, they all panicked. They didn't know what to do with themselves. A tael of silver was enough for them to spend, but now they actually rewarded them with a tael of gold. Not excited.

Several people hurriedly knelt down and said: "Master, you paid for these things with your lives, we can't take them."

Before Long Liang could speak, Long Feiyu said, "You guys don't kneel at every turn, we don't like this in the Dragon Manor, so you just take it when the master gives it to you. These yellow and white things are just for flowers. If you don’t bring it, you don’t take it with you, it’s enough for what you need, so why do you need so much. Besides, what we have so much for you is just a small part of it, so don’t be so excited. Get up and do things quickly.”

Listening to Long Feiyu's words, Long Liang also nodded and said: "Your son is right, these things are enough. Besides, the young lady gave birth to such a great joy, how can I not express it, you don't want us, Long Are the descendants of the family Mianmian?"

After Long Liang said so, several people hurriedly shook their heads saying they didn't dare, and put away the gold.It was another court meeting, and as soon as Long Feiyu and his son entered the hall, there was a burst of congratulations.

Not far away, an unfamiliar face came into Long Feiyu's eyes. It was a middle-aged man with a handsome face. At this time, he looked at Long's father and son with shame, guilt, and excitement.He wanted to go up to greet them, but stopped because of something.

Seeing his undecided appearance, Long Feiyu gestured to Long Liang with his eyes, and Long Liang glanced at the middle-aged man and said, "The governor of Lizhou, the warrior Xun."

Hearing the samurai 彟, Long Feiyu was surprised. This is a great man, his daughter has done what all women want to do for thousands of years, a famous empress through the ages.

However, due to his own arrival, it is unknown whether Wu Zetian can sit on the throne.Seeing Warrior Xun's appearance, Long Feiyu suddenly thought of something. His father and Warrior Xun Li Yuan were bosom friends, but when they were about to be beheaded, neither Li Yuan nor Warrior Xun interceded for his father and son.

At this time, their father and son were in full swing, and the warrior Xun was naturally embarrassed to come.While thinking, Cheng Zhijie came over, patted Long Feiyu on the shoulder and said, "Boy Long, when are you going to buy us a drink after giving birth to your son?"

Long Feiyu smiled and said: "The birth of the first child should be celebrated with great fanfare. It will be prosperous at the beginning. I will definitely send invitations to you when the child is full moon."

Cheng Zhijie patted Long Feiyu's shoulder with a smile and said: "You kid is used to crying poor, don't let us share the cost of the banquet for you when the wine is not enough."

Long Feiyu patted his chest and said: "Don't worry, I really had this idea before yesterday, thinking about how to get some money from you to celebrate my son's birthday. But I won't do it today. Someone gave me more than 1000 taels of gold yesterday." , it’s not short of money now, if you dare to come, don’t even think about walking out.”

Hearing that Long Feiyu said that he was not short of money, Yu Chigong glanced at Cheng Zhijie, then looked at Long Feiyu and said, "Could you have moved the national treasury back home? If there is no money, old Cheng's family has plenty. Back then He took advantage of His Majesty during the big tent, he is the richest among us, and he can afford a few banquets. You must never break the law knowingly."

Long Feiyu shook his head and said: "Mr. E, what are you talking about? Do you think I have so much courage? It was given by someone else. As for who gave it to me, I don't know. Anyway, if you have money, just spend it here. .What are you doing so much?”

Hearing the gift, the expressions of several people changed immediately, Cheng Zhijie stopped Long Feiyu's words, and hurriedly said in a low voice: "Why do you dare to say anything, this is accepting bribes, if His Majesty hears But it will be troublesome."

Long Feiyu's words were still echoing in the hall, and everyone had heard them a long time ago.Some people were sweating for Long Feiyu, some gloated and planned to sue Long Feiyu later, but Liu Shilang was depressed at the moment, and all his savings accumulated for so long were sent to Long Feiyu. At this time, he really wants to cry but has no tears, and he has nowhere to go for greed.

Seeing the nervousness of the group of people, Long Feiyu smiled and said: "Why are you nervous? I have already told His Majesty. Your Majesty said that since you don't know where they came from, you must give these things to him. But you can give them to him for comparison." Trouble, just give it to me, don’t want this free gift, if anyone of you has any yellow and white things you don’t want, you can send them to my mansion.”

As soon as Long Feiyu finished speaking, a general interrupted: "There are a lot of yellow and white things in the toilet in our house. If Long Shangshu wants it, he can get it himself."

Long Feiyu said with a chuckle: "Really? General Liu, you are getting more and more courageous, and you dare to speak. I always thought that you would only speak when you were fighting. It’s really gratifying to be able to say such incisive words. I don’t mind if you choose to come to my residence yourself.”

Hearing what Long Feiyu said, a group of generals laughed. They really had nothing to be proud of in front of Long Feiyu.Long Feiyu has fought many battles, big and small, but he has never been defeated. Just because of this alone, his status in the army cannot be compared with others.

A group of people were chatting and laughing there, and suddenly there was a shout of going up not far away, and the group of people hurriedly lined up and walked towards the inside of the hall when they heard the shout.

As soon as everyone entered the hall, they saw Li Shimin walking up the hall with a smile on his face.As soon as everyone visited the shrine, Li Shimin said excitedly: "I am very happy today. The stubborn disease that has plagued me for many years has left my body. After so many years, when autumn comes, I can't sleep. My whole leg feels like a needle prick. It's unbearable. I finally got a good night's sleep last night. Long Feiyu, you have contributed a lot, so tell me, what reward do you want?"

Seeing that Li Shimin was so happy, Long Feiyu looked around and cupped his hands and said, "Serving Your Majesty is what I should do. Your Majesty has already given me so much gold, if I want more things, I will be a little greedy."

Li Shimin waved his hand and said, "No, I told you to say whatever you think of, as long as I can afford it."

Hearing what Li Shimin said, Long Feiyu suddenly bowed and said: "Your Majesty, the household department has just been sorted out. Although this year is the second year of Zhenguan, the actual income is still the first year. In order to make the people of the world different from the previous dynasty , I implore Your Majesty to exempt the people of the whole country from taxes for this year. After the next summer harvest, it will be collected again."

As soon as Long Feiyu's words came out of his mouth, Li Shimin's face immediately froze with a smile on his face, and he said with some embarrassment: "Long Feiyu's matter is of great importance, you should change your wish."

Long Feiyu shook his head and said: "It is an imperial decree from the mouth of His Majesty, how can it be changed at will, besides, the people have just returned to the construction, and the seeds in the early stage of the first year are all given by the imperial court, and the millet they harvest in autumn is not only returned to the imperial court. In addition to food, we have to survive the cold winter, and we have to wait until next year to collect taxes.”

Li Shimin shook his head and said: "This tax is collected according to the land. There is no head tax, and now there is no land tax. Where does the court come from for such a large expenditure?"

"Your Majesty, Jieli returned the property looted from Chang'an. These things are enough for us to get through this year. Our top priority is to gather people's hearts. As long as we gather people's hearts, next year will be a good start."

Li Shimin thought over and over again, but he waved his hands helplessly and said: "Okay, I will do as you say. But all the ministers and workers must tighten their stomachs and live, and don't be extravagant and wasteful. This thrifty starts with me. Sanbao told the imperial dining room that I eat every meal. Three dishes and one soup, and the rest of the money will be handed over to the Ministry of Households, and our monarchs and ministers will work hard for the livelihood of the people of our Tang Dynasty."

Li Shimin has expressed his position like this, how dare those courtiers talk nonsense, not to mention that Long Feiyu's suggestion is for the national economy and the people's livelihood, they dare not stand up to oppose it even if they have the courage.
